Some more info after some staring:

We could've made the lock_class_key only static storage so that lockdep
is happy but then struct bus_type embeds the *whole* lock_class_key and
not a pointer to it.

Which leaves us with either:

* this fix postponing the problem

* or Greg coming and saying, you're using bus_type all wrong and you
shouldn't and you should remove it completely! :-)

Which would be much better.

Thx.
